Name: Pat & Deb's Cafe

Style: Casual family, home-style cooking and catering

Owner: Debra Mott

Hours of operation: 7 a.m. to 9 a.m., daily

The Scoop: Once known as Haney's, Pat & Deb's Café has undergone changes of late. For one, co-owner, Pat Heinhold is no longer a partner and has left operation and management duties to Debra Mott. However, Mott seems to be managing just fine, according to loyal patron and Bonita Springs resident, Marie Lawson.

"Their prices are reasonable and they offer 10 percent off for seniors. After dinner one can stroll across the street and enjoy the sunset on the beach," said Lawson. "I hope everyone will take the time to visit one of our favorite local restaurants."

The café boasts all cooking and baking done on the premises, with everything made from fresh ingredients and extends the wish that their food "will nourish your body and comfort your soul, just like your mom's did."

All you can eat specials run several times a week: Monday and Tuesday, stuffed cabbage or stuffed peppers; Wednesday, spaghetti; Friday, fried grouper; and Saturday, ribs. Wash the specials down with their selection of beer, white and red wines. Off premises catering services are also available.
